Alberta’s Auditor General Fred Dunn reported yesterday that a former senior bureaucrat with the province’s anti-addictions agency created $634,000 in false contracts to spend most of it on his own gambling. Lloyd Carr, former executive director of the Alberta Alcohol and Drug Abuse Commission’s tobacco-reduction unit, told the auditors he had a gambling problem.
